Yes, quite a few tricks to make the 2 liter more livable, I swapped in a catless up pipe, tune and had the td04 port and polished on my 2 liter and it helped quite a bit. But having owned a 2.5 liter for two years now I think I will go that route if at all possible, its been in enough cars now that they are pretty common to find.

Subaru's latest LGT manifold with the turbo front/low helps low end too. Not sure it will fit the 818 though.

Yea that us a sweet setup, I have not seen it tried on an older engine though

So what size should I make my build dolly

I was actually thinking about moving the turbo to shorten the manifold runner length. If possible, much lower, get a little more weight down low and keep the heat away from the intercooler and possible storage area.

There is not room in the 818 for that

Come on Wayne, do we really need a gas tank?

Seriously though, isn't there potential to reconfigure the tank to make some room?

Someone needs to figure this out come on Wayne you can do it....
